Russia controlled the Zaporizhzhia factory in southern Ukraine in March, but the facility was still operated by Ukrainian technicians.

Energoatom said the factory was disconnected from the national grid after a power line was interrupted twice due to firepower aimed at nearby thermal power plants.

As a result, two of the 6 reactors of the factory were disconnected.

Russia has not yet commented on this information.

Ukrainian officials have previously said that Moscow will disconnect the factory from the country's national grid to transfer the power source to the Crimea peninsula.

Recent combat occurred around the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant area, raising concerns about the risk of nuclear incidents that can be compared to the chernobyl disaster in 1986. Russia and Ukraine accuse each other causing tons of tons.

During the visit to Odessa Port on August 19, when asked about the information that Russia could cut supply from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant from the Ukrainian grid and turned to the Crimea peninsula, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.

Russia later proposed by the UN Secretary -General on the demilitarization, saying this idea was unacceptable.

The fighting around the Zaporizhzhia power plant in Ukraine recently continued to raise concerns about a serious nuclear disaster.

No warning was released when firepower poured down on the Zaporizhzhia factory, the largest nuclear electrical facility in Europe, causing workers to flee.
